Winter is no longer coming. It is here.

Winter has been one of my favorite seasons for at least the last 20 years. I think it's because we don't get much of a winter back home in Dallas and I like experiencing different kinds of weather in different places. And while it's often easy to imagine what a place would be like on a bright summer day, envisioning the same place in the dead of winter under feet of snow is a bit more challenging for me. So I tend to take a lot of pictures in the winter.

But one of my favorite pictures from this winter was taken by someone else & posted to our town's Facebook page. Thank you to the person who captured this beauty!

Winter in the "Happy Valley" is also important for other reasons. Like family visits during Christmas with Hot Chocolate, Christmas markets and time with the grandparents...

And who can forget the fun winter activities like Ice Skating, Skiing, Sledding and building Snowmen!

Winter in Liechtenstein is a magical time and I think I can safely say that we have all found things we love about living here during this time of year. And with another month yet to go I'm sure we'll have more snowy updates in the coming weeks.
